Revelation 20 records the fulfillment of the bulk of Messianic prophecies prophesied from the garden to the seven churches as revealed in the first three chapters of Revelation. In a clear demonstration and in dramatic fashion, YeHoVaH displays His superior power over the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan. The second coming of Messiah and eliminating the two beasts in the previous chapter turns YeHoVaH’s focus to Satan's earthly influence, the First Resurrection, the thousand-year reign of Messiah, mankind’s rebellion after the Millennium, the Great White Throne Judgment, the Second Resurrection, and the ultimate destruction of death and hell itself. The First Resurrection, Millennial Reign and The Second Death prepares the faithful followers of Messiah for the revelation of the new heaven, the new earth, new Jerusalem, and the Lamb’s bride.

What happens during the Millennial Reign and what is the Second Death in Revelation 20?  Revelation 20 records the fulfillment of the bulk of Messianic prophecies spoken from the garden to the seven churches, as YeHoVaH demonstrates His supreme power over Satan — that old serpent, the Devil — by binding him and removing his earthly influence for a thousand years. With Satan restrained, the First Resurrection takes place and the faithful followers of Messiah reign with Him throughout the Millennial Kingdom, a period that fulfills what prophets across Scripture had long foretold. When the thousand years conclude, Satan is briefly released, mankind rebels once more, and the Great White Throne Judgment convenes for the Second Resurrection — the final accounting for all who have ever lived. The chapter culminates in the ultimate destruction of death and hell itself, which are cast into the lake of fire in what is called the Second Death, clearing the way for the revelation of the new heaven, the new earth, the New Jerusalem, and the full unveiling of the Lamb's bride.
